2. Casablanca Fan Company - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casablanca_Fan_Company

   In 1979, Casablanca introduced their Silent-Flex flywheel to replace the milled-aluminum flywheels they had been using prior. The Silent-Flex flywheel was a double-torus made of soft rubber with die-cast zinc reinforcements that acted as a shock absorber to virtually eliminate the transmission of vibration and noise from the fan's motor to the blades.

3. Ceiling fan - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceiling_fan

   A 5-blade ceiling fan in a restaurant. HVLS fans are large-diameter ceiling fans, intended for large spaces such as large warehouses, hangars, shopping malls, railway platforms and gymnasiums. These fans generally spin at a lower speed but due to their large diameter, ranging between 7' and 24' (2.1 m and 7.3 m), can provide a large area with a ...

4. High-volume low-speed fan - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-volume_low-speed_fan

   Ceiling fans increase air speed at the occupant level, which facilitates more efficient heat rejection, cooling the occupant, rather than the space. [ 10 ] [ 11 ] [ 12 ] Elevated air speed increases the rate of convective and evaporative heat loss from the body, thus making the occupant feel cooler without changing the dry bulb temperature of ...

5. Fan (machine) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fan_(machine)

   Fans inside audio power amplifiers help to draw heat away from the electrical components. Variable pitch fan: A variable-pitch fan is used to precisely control static pressure within supply ducts. The blades are arranged to rotate upon a control-pitch hub. The fan wheel will spin at a constant speed. The blades follow the control pitch hub.

6. Centrifugal fan - Wikipedia

   Figure 1: Components of a centrifugal fan An external motor belt driven inline centrifugal fan discharging inline to the exterior of a building through a duct. Unlike non-inline/non-concentric impeller casing design with a cutoff blade above, the concentrically symetric cylinder casing and impeller geometry of inline type redirects the outflow around so that it is parallel to the inflow of gases.

7. Flicker (light) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flicker_(light)

   Ceiling fans and wind turbines [ edit ] Other examples of light flicker can sometimes be associated with ceiling fans [ 19 ] or wind turbines [ 20 ] This occurs when the rotation of the blade continuously blocks the light source (i.e. indoor ceiling light or Sun), causing visual flicker.
